Abstract:		 Excavation of land at West End, Haddenham (centred on NGR TL 45946 75614) was undertaken by Birmingham Archaeology in March 2008. The excavation was commissioned by CgMS Consulting in advance of a proposed residential development on the site. A previous archaeological evaluation, undertaken by Birmingham Archaeology in 2007 (Bishop 2007) had identified evidence of settlement activity in the form of ditches, gullies and pits dating from the Early to Middle Iron Age. The excavation uncovered evidence of small scale, temporary encampments during the Mesolithic and Neolithic periods, as well as settlement evidence, in the form of boundary and enclosure ditches, pits and postholes dating from the Early-Late Iron Age. The evidence suggests a small scale settlement being established during the Early Iron Age with expansion during the Mid-Late Iron Age, with the centre of the main settlement being located to the east of the site. The settlement was most likely moved to the south and / or east during the Romano-British period with the features revealed during the excavation forming part of the settlement limits. Ploughing or drainage ditches were also uncovered showing continued use of the area, probably as part of a field system, during the post-medieval period.
